Comment supprimer the Récupération Partition in Windows 10?

[ForumBot]

J'ai besoin de convert the disk containing my operating system to a dynamic disk (from a basic disk). Unfortunately there is no room on the disk to convert the drive from basic to dynamic.

Microsoft documents the problem, and notes la solution est to delete the last partition on the disk:

RESOLUTION



Start Disk Manager, faites un clic droit sur the last partition, and puis cliquez sur Delete Partition.

**Note**: Je n'ai pas besoin de a reason to ask my question. But if anyone would refuse to answer the question unless i gave a justification, there one is.

It's important to note that:

- this recovery partition didn't come from an OEM

- the recovery partition was created when Windows 7 Retail was cleanly installed on the PC

**Bonus Question**: Why did Windows 7 create a *"Recovery Partition"*?

**Bonus Question**: Comment create, or re-create, a *"Recovery Partition"* on a disque dur that does not have one?

Fortunately i don't have to back anything up from this Recovery Partition, since Windows says it is empty:

Except the directions on Microsoft support don't work - there is no option to delete the *recovery partition*:

## Microsoft says vous pouvez utiliser the **Create Recovery Drive** to delete a recovery partition

From [Create a USB recovery drive](http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-usb-recovery-drive), which is used to create a USB recovery drive, there is supposed to be an option at the end of the wizard to delete the recovery partition on the disque dur:

Quand le process is done, do one of the following:



- Si vous voulez to keep the recovery partition on your PC, tap or click **Finish**.




Si vous voulez to remove the recovery partition from your PC and free up espace disque, tap or click **Delete the recovery partition**. Then tap or click **Delete**. Cela va free up the espace disque used to store your recovery image. Quand le removal is done, tap or click **Finish**.

**Note**



Some PCs don't offer the option to remove a recovery partition. If you experience this, there isn't a recovery partition on your PC that's using additional disc space.


When i complete the wizard, there isn't offered the option to remove a recovery partition:

Quel apparently means that my machine doesn't have a **Recovery Partition**, yet i refer you to:

Quel causes the questions:

- do i have a **Recovery Partition**?

- Pourquoi Windows say that i do?

- Pourquoi Windows say that i don't?

- Why did Windows create the **Recovery Parition** in the first place?

- Pourquoi the **Recovery Partition** empty?

- Pourquoi Windows not let a user delete a **Recovery Partition**?

The problem i'm actually trying to solve is how do i convert the disk to dynamic (without reinstalling Windows of course).

## DiskPart

J'ai essayé using DiskPart from an elevated invite de commandes:

```
>diskpart
DISKPART> select disk 0
DISKPART> select partition 3
DISKPART> delete partition

Virtual Disk Service error:
Cannot delete a protected partition without the force protected parameter set.

```

There is plenty of space on the disk. You are getting this error for a different reason. If your machine is anything but a desktop then you would get the error you have.

You aren't able to delete the recovery partition because it EFI protected. Vous devriez be able to force by using the `override` command.

I would try using diskpart (from an elevated invite de commandes) to delete the partition.

```
DISKPART> list disk
DISKPART> select disk 4

Disk 4 is now the selected disk.

DISKPART> list partition
